The Warne was a British 4-wheeled cyclecar made from 1912 to 1915 by Pearsall Warne Ltd at the Icknield Works in Letchworth, Hertfordshire.
The car had a lightweight two-seat open body with full weather equipment. The car was launched in 1912 fitted with a JAP, V twin air-cooled engine of 964 cc with an RAC horsepower rating of 8 hp. but by the 1913 Olympia show the company had swapped to using F. E. Baker Ltd Precision 50 degree V-twin engines of 964cc. One model had the air cooled version of the engine, and the other used the water-cooled version.
In the original car the drive was to the rear wheels by belts, but the water-cooled version for 1913 had a 3-speed with reverse gearbox, the air-cooled version retaining the belt system. The suspension used half elliptic leaf springs all round.
The engine size increased to 1070 cc in 1915.
It originally cost ã99. The 1914 models with Precision engines were ã120 for the air-cooled version and ã130 for the water-cooled version. The air-cooled version was given a conventional appearance by fitting a dummy radiator.
In mid 1913 six cars a week were being made.
